My faves Ordinary Days and A Song For You. The latter has amazing crystal clear vocals, beautiful depth of tone and shows how powerful Leon's voice really is.

Leon's version of 'A Song for You' is my fave version over anyone. 'Tis beautiful and as you say, so powerful and with that velvet voice.

Just been buying some new albums on i-tunes and was surprised to see that Leon's album "Right Now" was sitting at No 50 in the vocal music chart. For an album that was released in 2008 that's quite an achievement.

Still looking forward to another album from Leon. I wonder how much longer we will have to wait?

Yeah, the album has been hovering up and down the vocal charts since it was released. I think the lowest I have seen it was about #72. There is always at least one of these 3 songs in the singles charts: Creative, Caledonia or When You Believe, or sometimes 2 or all 3 of them!.

Well all the signs are pointing to an album towards the end of the year so here's hoping!

I certainly hope we see an Album this year. If Leon issues one towards the end of the year that would solve my problem of what to buy for Christmas presents

Yep! Looking forward to The Voice on Saturday and espcially to see how Vince does. It will be interesting to see if he can go all the way as he is being tipped for the 2012's hottest new artist! I doubt he will be singing anything as raunchy as Sick Love though! lol

Absolutely fab night last night seeing Leon and Allen Stone and ZZ Ward.
All had different styles of singing and all with terrific voices. Leon was on top form and hit some mega notes.

I wont have time to do any vids until the weekend coz I am off to London tomorrow, but I'll post some links for yt when I get all the vids from the two gigs sorted.

Incredible night at the Jazz Cafe last night.

Leon did some great vocals and finished off with his party piece Money, which really ended his set in style. It was lovely seeing Leon get such a rousing response from the audience.He's had some brilliant comments on his twitter and facebook and bagged himself some new fans. LLL lol

Allen Stone is a legend! His set was fantastic and his voice was phenomenal! Amazing vocals from ZZ Ward and some great songs. A brilliant night from start to finish
